Parking ticket

Mary and I both got parking tickets last week, both for extremely non-obvious violations. (Mine, for example, was for parking in a strange neighborhood on street-cleaning day, when there were no signs indicating that within 150 yards of where I parked.) Mary wrote a note to include with the payment:

"They're threatening to close down my daughter's school because of budget shortages, and yet there always seems to be enough money to pay the wages of assholes like you."

Of course, she's too nice to actually send such a note, but I think just writing it was cleansing to her soul.
